Classical rotating closed string are folded strings. At the folding points the scalar curvature associated with the induced metric diverges. As a consequence one cannot properly quantize the fluctuations around the classical solution since there is no complete set of normalizable eigenmodes. Furthermore in the non-critical effective string action of Polchinski and Strominger, there is a divergence associated with the folds. We overcome this obstacle by putting a massive particle at each folding point which can be used as a regulator. Using this method we compute the spectrum of quantum fluctuations around the rotating string and the intercept of the leading Regge trajectory. The results we find are that the intercepts are $a=1$ and $a=2$ for the open and closed string respectively, independent of the target space dimension. We argue that in generic theories with an effective string description, one can expect corrections from finite masses associated with either the endpoints of an open string or the folding points on a closed string. We compute explicitly the corrections in the presence of these masses.

We study the equations of black strings in spacetimes of arbitrary dimensions with a negative cosmological constant and construct numerically non uniform black strings solutions. Our results suggest the existence of a localised black hole in asymptot
ically locally $AdS$ spacetime. We also present evidences for a dependence of the critical dimension on the horizon radius.The critical dimension represents the dimension where the order of the phase transition between uniform and non uniform black string changes. Finally, we argue that both, the regular asymptotically locally $AdS$ solution and $AdS$ black string solutions with a very small horizon radius, present a negative tension. This turns out to be an unexpected feature of the solutions.
In this paper we present semiclassical computations of the splitting of folded spinning strings in AdS_3, which may be of interest in the context of AdS/CFT duality. We start with a classical closed string and assume that it can split on two closed s
tring fragments, if at a given time two points on it coincide in target space and their velocities agree. First we consider the case of the folded string with large spin. Assuming the formal large-spin approximation of the folded string solution in AdS_3, we can completely describe the process of splitting: compute the full set of charges and obtain the string solutions describing the evolution of the final states. We find that, in this limit, the world surface does not change in the process and the final states are described by the solutions of the same type as the initial string, i.e. the formal large-spin approximation of the folded string in AdS_3. Then we consider the general case --- splitting of string given by the exact folded string solution. We find the expressions for the charges of the final fragments, the coordinate transformations diagonalizing them and, finally, their energies and spins. Due to the complexity of the initial string profile, we cannot find the solutions describing the evolution of the final fragments, but we can predict their qualitative behavior. We also generalize the results to include circular rotations and windings in S^5.
We use the effective action of the $E_n$ non-critical strings to study its BPS spectrum for $0 le n le 8$. We show how to introduce mass parameters, or Wilson lines, into the effective action, and then perform the appropriate asymptotic expansions th
at yield the BPS spectrum. The result is the $E_n$ character expansion of the spectrum, and is equivalent to performing the mirror map on a Calabi-Yau with up to nine Kahler moduli. This enables a much more detailed examination of the $E_n$ structure of the theory, and provides extensive checks on the effective action description of the non-critical string. We extract some universal ($E_n$ independent) information concerning the degeneracies of BPS excitations.
We investigate an alternative quantization of R-NS string theory. In the alternative quantization, we define the distinct vacuum for the left-moving mode and the right-moving mode by exchanging the role of creation operators and annihilation operator
s in the left-moving sector. The resulting string theory has only a finite number of propagating degrees of freedom. We show that an appropriate choice of the GSO projection makes the theory tachyon free. The spectrum coincides with the massless sector of type IIA or type IIB superstring theory without any massive excitations.
In this letter, the open string is quantized in a time dependent black hole background. The geometry is defined through an adiabatic approximation of the Vaydia metric. The worldsheet two-point function is derived and it is shown to have the same typ
e of singularity as the flat space one. However, the equal times two-point function depends on the particular Cauchy surface where the worldsheet fields are defined. Finite temperature effects are incorporated through the Liouville-von Neumann approach to non equilibrium thermodynamics.
